Pop culture painting and brilliant notice to color details and moment.
Beautiful color composition that is very simple and abstract and uses color and a found moment in a symbolic way. Reminds me of a Sam Abell picture.

Nice close-up that not every photographer would have seen. The guest with the bride and groom in his glasses and the huge smile on his face tells a story about the relationship between a bride and groom and their friends. It is a detail that is wellâ€“caught, original, and tells a universal story.

Nice getting-ready moment that feels very â€œMartin Parr.â€ Love the tabloid paper and the way that gives the bride historical context, information about her milieu, and a sense of the relativity of important events.

Nice detail that is familiar and recognizable yet shows me something I have never seen this way. I like the simplicity of the elements and the way the background drops out of focus but the iconic elements (flower on lapel, tie, tux) are perfectly readable.

Funny and unexpected moment. What can I say? It is a joke my 7 year old would like but it works at any age. A wedding is the most planned event with lots of expectations and anticipation of perfection. The embarrassing moments that happen anyway are humbling and give us a break from the seriousness of it all.
